About
Hot on the heels of KWS Extase, from our French breeding programme comes, KWS Equipe – with all the great attributes growers love about Extase with better grain, high yields, and great untreated yield. KWS Equipe is the off spring of KWS Extase crossed with French market leading variety, Chevignon. It is a high yielding wheat that performs especially well in the west thanks to its excellent disease package including a 6.7 for Septoria. With untreated yields at 90% treated controls, KWS Equipe is a very resilient wheat.
